I need to learn web design as soon as possible to start a small business designing and hosting web pages and email services for local business and other small organizations. I know someone who already does the same thing successfully. Entire web sites are designed with MS Publisher and uploaded to a web hosting reseller, which takes the technical aspects out of everything. I am really serious about doing this, out of both personal interest and necessity. Before I attempt this though I need to know whether I should go the same route as my friend and use WYSIWYG software to design the pages or go the professional route and code by hand. If you do or have done this and have an idea of how many months it will take minimum, to start designing pages for business, please share your thoughts. I've already done some google searches but am looking for some last input from personal experience incase there's anything I've missed.
